The complainant submitted a request to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) seeking information about general warrants concerning the interception of electronic devices. The FCO confirmed that it held information falling within the scope of the request but it considered this to be exempt from disclosure on the basis of sections 23(1) (security bodies), 40(2) (personal data) and 42(1) (legal professional privilege). The Commissioner has concluded the withheld information is exempt from disclosure on the basis of section 23(1) of FOIA.
